The 70 bed hotel with cafes, bars and spa is formed by linking 2 B-Listed medical pavilions designed by Sidney Mitchell in 1899 on the site of the former Edinburgh Royal Infirmary. The exterior of the buildings have been largely restored and linked by a 3 storey glass enclosed stairway which also forms the western end of a new central square at the heart of Foster & Partners masterplan.

New Quartermile sketch images also released by Foster & Partners. The Surgical Hospital will now be used for residential rather than a five-star hotel. Controversially Sydney Mitchell's Red Home is set to be demolished which will surely reignite negative reaction. 221105 Summer 2005 Update: Page\Park no longer involved. Richard Murphy Architects doing more housing and CDA brought in. More details awaited.
